Nah I just figured you wanted to stick to 17s, 18s would be more costly because tires generally cost more. ---

depends on what tire size you go with, I’d hold off on spacers until you have the wheels with tires mounted ready to go make sure the wheels have a 67.1mm hub centerbore before ordering, that goes for the spacers too when that time comes. once you get the wheels, post up some pics with them mounted and we’ll tell you how much spacer you need ---

that’s out of my area of expertise. you’ll need to consult some dsm forum for that shit, or pete. if I were you, on a 8" wheel, a 235/40/18 would probably be the best balance of width and look [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/tire-people-help/266213.md?page=2)
